You just know there are some people out there who feel like they've just won a decades-long debate with their friends
Having lived in a small American barrio, tacos are definitely sandwiches.
I feel like you are even more qualified than some judge in Indiana
Lol. Thanks. Doesn't count in court, I guess. I'm wondering if another group in another region would disagree?
And those people are wrong.
New York has a similar ruling for tax purposes, since prepared sandwiches have sales tax, unlike general groceries.

Always fun to be able to cite legal cases in your sandwich debates.
And in California bees are fish.
In Catholicism beavers are fish.
And in absurdism, beavers are bees.
Both are busy, the logic checks out
I don't trust a judge from Indiana to be able to tell the difference between their ass and a hole in the ground stg
To be fair, Burro and Burrow are spelled very similarly, but knowing the difference is a big W.
Im not sure I agree with that. There is no bread involved, and possibly worse for team sandwich, there is only one continuous wrapper. I don’t care what the tax man says that shit ain’t a sandwich. If anything it’s a sort of calzone.
Tortilla is bread
There is no bread involved...
Tortillas are flat bread.
Also, pizza is an open face sandwich. Change my mind.
Tortilla is absolutely flat bread.
We label foods based upon the number of carb sides.
Open face sandwiches are not a thing. A sandwich requires two non-contiguous opposed bread layers, otherwise it isn't a sandwich. It's a pie. A bottom carb layer with a top layer of substance. Pizza, pie, "open face sandwiches", and French parfait are all pies.
Now, by having only one contiguous bread, but covering three sides, that would put tacos, hotdogs, Philly cheese steaks, and subs all in their own category (arguably a misshapen pie, but that's a deeper debate).

So tacos are open face pies?
Yes the term exists. I'm saying the term is wrong and shouldn't exist.
It's weird in my area. We say toast and jam but call meat and cheese on toast a sandwich. I guess I'm my mind, more than once topping kind of makes it a sandwich, however ... Eggs and cheese on toast but Neuchatel and jam on toast.
A pizza is an unfolded calzone or stromboli.
One of my Asian friends commented that "all of your food is just a sandwich" and I can't lie...man kinda has a point.
da fuq does Indiana legislature know?
BURN THE HERETIC!
I've been waiting for this moment my entire life
